18-yr-old Nigerian boy stabbed to death in London

A teenager stabbed to death in north-east London on Wednesday night has been named as Israel Ogunsola. His death, together with the death of a man in his 50s, takes the capital’s suspected murder toll to more than 50 in just three months.

Ogunsola died in the shadow of a railway bridge on Link Street at the junction with Morning Lane in Hackney at 8.24pm, about half an hour after being stabbed.

Ogunsola had been charged with ABH, dangerous driving without a licence, having no insurance and being in possession of cannabis after an incident in Stevenage in November that left a police officer with a head injury. .

A friend of the teenager said that he had been a student at the University of Hertfordshire – which is based in Stevenage – but had recently returned home to live with his parents.

It has emerged he was Facebook friends with another teenage victim of violent crime in London. Tanesha Melbourne, 17, was shot in a drive-by shooting on Monday in Tottenham.

Just 30 minutes later, 16-year-old Amaan Shakoor was shot in the face in Walthamstow. A spate of knife and gun deaths has prompted fears London’s murder rate for 2018 will surge above that for last year.

“May your baby daddy live long enough to become a step father to his own child” Toke Makinwa blasts rapper, Future

Popular OAP, Toke Makinwa has gone on instagram to blast American rapper for disrespecting his baby mama, Ciara’s husband.

Toke addressed Future’s comments that his child’s step father, Russell was being controlled by his baby mama, Ciara.

She expressed that Future should have been happy that his child had a step father who loved him like a father instead of attacking him.

Toke also used the opportunity to advise other single mothers to let go of any baggage they had with absent fathers. She prayed : “May your baby daddy live long enough to become a step father to his own child.

Read what she wrote:

Man like Russell

My MCM today has to be this guy. If you’ve been following the whole Future Vs Ciara n Russell drama you’ll know why. See I love future, I’m a huge fan of his whole vibe. He makes good music too but what is wrong is wrong.

The black community has enough single mothers raising kids all by themselves, the narrative of absentee fathers has been played for so long that I’m sure if you check now senior future is probably a product of single parenting too.

While life happens and sometimes it’s no ones fault, if you see a man who accepts your kid and is raising him like his own, like truly loves your own blood and is present in his life, he deserves all the praise in the world. why will you disrespect him?

Why comment on what you couldn’t bring to the table? Talking about Ciara must be controlling him, SMH. She leveled up and he is so mad 😡. You had her, lost her, she found a real man and your salty ass is bitter. Future has had more kids with his baby mamas and recently said he’ll never marry anyone of them.

Russell is that man that future simply isn’t. You cannot put a good woman down. Today I use this as a point of contact to every single mother raising kids on their own while the sperm donors are walking around, may you find your own Russell, and May your baby daddy live long enough to become a step father to his own child.

May you find the strength to move on without any bitterness, it’s not easy but bitterness will kill you before your time. Let go and Let God. I pray you invest in your glow up and level up so bad that your shine will blind anyone working against you.

Don’t get even, get better. To all the good men out there just trying to do right and live right, more muscle to your hustle, may the world sing your praise and celebrate you even more. #mondaymotivation#Inspired
